"It wasn't timely. He hires cheap labor that does everything but isnt good at anything. The framers were hacks using broken lumber in spots. Sheetrock cracked and needed repair ( which they did) the new shower was installed without specialized mounting clips and the flange on shower walls were cracked. The shower door did not function and when I went to fix it, the hanging hardware fell off. New flooring throughout the house including the new addition. The new addition subfloor wasn't screwed correctly which resulted in a reinstall. In the old part of the house, the subfloor was not prepped properly causing the vinyl plank to bow and crack. Jim refused to fix. Jim's crew forgot to put a vent on roof so water came into house and collapsed the bathroom ceiling. ( He did take responsibility and fix that) overall very disappointed with someone that claims to do quality work. If I could rate lowerI would."

The 30% rule serves as a guideline suggesting that renovation costs should not exceed 30% of your home's current market value. This principle helps prevent over-investing in improvements that the market may not fully reward upon resale.
For example, if your property is valued at $200,000, keeping your renovation budget under $60,000 provides better financial returns. However, this rule should be balanced with your personal goals and how long you plan to remain in the home.
A $50,000 budget can effectively transform several spaces if carefully allocated. This amount covers a moderate kitchen refresh combined with a bathroom update, or several less complex rooms like bedrooms and living areas.
Your geographic location, material choices, and the extent of structural changes significantly impact what this budget can accomplish. Focusing on cosmetic improvements rather than major layout changes helps maximize your investment across multiple spaces.
Labor constitutes the largest expense in multi-room remodels, accounting for 40% to 70% of total costs. Kitchen and bathroom spaces demand the highest investment due to their specialized fixtures, cabinetry requirements, and necessary plumbing work.
Premium materials such as natural stone countertops, hardwood flooring, and custom cabinetry also significantly increase project costs. Strategic budgeting that balances splurges and savings helps manage these high-cost elements effectively.
Most multi-room remodeling projects require three to six months from start to completion, though complex renovations may extend longer. The process follows a necessary sequence of demolition, structural work, mechanical rough-ins, finishing, and final detailing.
Timeline variables include material availability, contractor scheduling, inspection delays, and unexpected conditions discovered during construction. Establishing clear communication with your contractor and making prompt decisions helps maintain momentum throughout the project.
Begin with foundational and structural modifications that affect multiple spaces before progressing to individual rooms. Address "wet" areas like kitchens and bathrooms next, as these involve the most complex work with plumbing and specialized installations. Complete bedrooms and living spaces last to prevent damage to newly finished areas.
This logical progression minimizes redundant work and creates at least one functional living zone throughout the renovation process. Coordinating related work across different spaces also improves efficiency and potentially reduces costs.
